modecpy(9)

modecpy(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to a Kernel API Manual page — this one is short, sweet, and very “hold my hand while we prep a SCSI response” energy. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

modecpy — get a response ready for MODE SENSE 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void modecpy (u8 *dest , const u8 *src , int n , bool changeable );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dest — the output buffer, aka where the response gets written 💌
• src — the data being copied, the source material bestie
• n — length of the mode page, the size of the situation
• changeable — whether changeable parameters are requested, like are we asking for the changeable flavor?

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

This function generates a generic MODE SENSE page — and it does it for either current parameters or changeable parameters. That’s the whole assignment, no cap. ✨

LOCKING: None. literally none, bestie.
